    Wow. Portugal against Wales in a semi-final. Feels so wrong, but I guess no one else deserves it.

    I really wish Ramsay and Davies weren't out for the Portugal match. Still have a chance since they play much more as a team.

    They're really following the 2004 Greece blueprint

    I know, but simple as that, Croatia and Poland have not done enough to beat them.

    They just beat Belgium and Portugal hasn't really beaten anyone yet. Yes, they have a chance and they have Bale.

    Benteke must have really fallen far from grace

    You cannot even see his shadow.

    Could y'all imagine Portugal winning the Euros? They are favorites to beat Wales and probably will without Ramsey. In the finals they'd obviously be huge underdogs against Germany/Italy/France, but anything can happen in a final.

    It would mean that Ronaldo would win a major tournament before Messi. Looking likely to always have that over Messi if Messi really does stay retired. It would drive most of y'all insane. It's probably driving Ronaldo insane, too.

    Portugal would lose to Germany or Italy or France, for sure.

    Still couple of hours away but I'm already pumped up for Germany versus Italy. Don't know If I could handle another loss against them. Had memories of 2006 and 2012 all week long.

    Löw said he won't use the starting XI he played vs Slovakia, I don't like this. We played brilliant and showed no weakness for the first time, hope he isn't benching Gomez, Draxler or Kimmich.

    He was right about bringing Draxler in, let's see what the thoughts are now. Sure looks way more defensive now.

    Argh, Khedira was important. Hope Schweini plays well.

    Does anyone else think this will be 0-0 and go to penalties? Or that Italy scores a lucky one and wins?
